How many First Spouse Flippers™ among us have held out and are taking advantage of $800+ gold?
The very nature of our beloved First Spouse Flippers™ is to sell the excessively rare First Spouse coins as soon as they are received off of the presses from the Mint. Many of the First Spouse Flippers™ had the foresight to flip their coins on Ebay, literally seconds after they received them. Have any of the First Spouse Flippers™ held on to their coins and are taking advantage of the $800+ price of gold, which any competent First Spouse Flipper™ should have foreseen?

my hand is sheepishly raised.
move along, nothing to see here.
Too many positive BST transactions with too many members to list.
I am hoping to sell (ie: flip) my First Spouse coins now that gold is over $800. However, I didn't receive my coins in time for the first big run up in prices, so I have held onto them awaiting better times. I believe the "better times" is now, and hoping that I can make a profit, instead of selling them for issue price.

Gold price is now around break-even for First Spouse uncirculated coins ordered from the Mint.

I want to know if the time has finally arrived to flip my Ford Edsel.
WHAT! NEVER!
Hold on to that big bad boy.
Does it count if you are just to lazy to try and sell them?

Guess I got lucky that the bullion prices are saving my arse.
Forget Spouses, I want to know if the time has finally arrived to flip my Ford Edsel.
As long as it lands right side up!
Also make sure it's not a 1961 or later!
